You talkin 360 to the wall? Off the wall? Or 360 on the wall kinda like how Buccha does it in Air Gear?

Yes, similar to Buccha is what I was thinking, I would imagine the physics for that require alot of momentum

Well.. You *probably wouldn't be able to scale walls like they do in the show.. I havn't done it because frankly I suck at skating at the moment, but it should be do-able. It probably wouldn't look like it does in the show either xD

Thinking about it, and the way you actually wall ride on blades, I would see this as being an excellent way to fall and injure yourself. Remember, when wall riding, you need to keep your body at an angle to the wall so you have enough grip(?) to push yourself back off the wall to land. If you're spinning around, you a) lose any momentum you have, unless you spin kind of like how you go from skating forwards to backwards and forwards again, but I've never seen a wall ride long enough to do that.
B) you lose that ability to push off the wall, and to successfully 360, I'd imagine you'd have to be at almost a right angle to avoid getting your skates tangled with each other, and you'd lose all stability and balance as you span. EDIT: That's just my own opinion. I'm not an amazing skater myself, but I'm just considering the theory and physics behind the idea of such a move.

I feel like there would be a technique you could use to achieve a 360 on the wall lol. Maybe if you angled your body at a <90 degree angle to the wall, and were able to time the angling of ones skates it would be possible? I would imagine as you are spinning, you alter the torque applied to the leg rotating upward and try to keep the other leg as a center point of half of the circle rotation you make on the wall, then do the same with the other leg....if that makes any sense

Dude that'd be so sick to watch and execute. XD I think its definitely doable. Itd be some pretty innovative stuff, man.

Momentum-speed-torque; all are related elements key to any maneuver or trick. Just depends in what way the rider uses them in a given action.
